livendive 8 #26 April 20, 2009 Great weather this weekend...got some work done in the school in the new hangar Saturday and did 5 tandems yesterday. I can't wait for the Caravan to come home for the season. Tandems out of a 182 should be the exception, not the rule. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

JohnMitchell 14 #27 April 20, 2009 Quote Tandems out of a 182 should be the exception, not the rule. Amen, brutha. I hope you took all the heavy weights.My numbers. 2 tandems, 3 AFF-I, and 7 fun jumps. Vskydiver took Luke Aikens' Red Bull Canopy Course this weekend. It was time very well spent. He did some great coaching for all levels of jumpers, from noob to swoopers, and everyone learned a lot. That guy sure knows his canopy flying. If you get a chance to do it sometime, I highly recommend it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you ever get the chance to take a class like that DO IT! It was a superb weekend. The weather was fantastic! Nice after the horrible winter we've had here.

SivaGanesha 2 #33 April 20, 2009 : No jumps. Out of $$$ unfortunately. I got paid today so I expect to be at the DZ this coming weekend and making a bunch of jumps.

buff 0 #35 April 21, 2009 :4:In Utah on business so found DSE's home DZ and rented a rig with a 170 in it and got in 4 RW jumps. Beer for first time out of the King Air. Thanks to Karl, Mike, and Patrick and Chris for flying camera. Fantastic scenery to fall thru and a cool friendly vibe at the DZ.It's called the Hillbilly Hop N Pop dude.
